I just got a copy of Fried Green Tomatoes. This book is so mesmerising, i began to read it this morning and i haven't even noticed I've got through 200 pages.
Back when Fried Green Tomatoes At the Wistle Stop Caffè came out i bought the book & took on vacation to Turk...i couldnt put it down...today, umpteen years later it is still the best book I've read..
I loved Fannie Flagg since her Match Game days. I have 6 of her books to read,I can't wait to start them. It's interesting how this lady that is dyslexic became a cherished author. Thank you for everything you do Fannie Flagg. From a Canadian fan. 🇨🇦❤🙏🕊🌹
If Biden wants to unify this country, Fanny Flagg deserves a medal of freedom. Nobody makes the South look as good as she does. Feeling blue? Read her books, they are truly wonderful filled with characters that you fall in love with. Even the protagonists are too funny to hate. My gift to my self each month is a new audiobook. You may have seen the movie Fried Green Tomatoes, but the book is so much more, an Ms. Flagg keeps giving us more. Bless you FF, you’ve been my Covid sanity.
I am so surprised how much I've enjoyed reading Ms. Flagg's Southern stories. I hope to read them all and look forward to her latest. She is such a gifted writer as well as talented comedienne.
She's definitely a legend! I remember growing up and watching her on "Match Game" back in the 1970's, and she's just as beautiful and charming today! It's so nice to see that she's still going strong! Congratulations and Hurray Miss Fannie!!❤💜💚
I’m just discovering her today🥰 I just finished “A Redbird Christmas” and I’m looking forward to reading more of her novels and watching her on shows via CZcams! :)
I'm glad Fannie Flagg changed her mind. I just read "The wonder boy of Whistle Stop" and it was so, so good. I never expected a sequel to Fried Green Tomatoes but happy it came to be.
You know ...... there aren't many women, in this country, that posse's the fine qualities of Fannie Flagg. And I am talking about Southern, down-to-earth charm, beauty, especially inner beauty, and class. Sadly, many women, these days, just do not measure up to Miss Flagg. 🥺 She, is the total package, for a lady! 🥰❤️ I had a teenage crush on her, back in the 1970s. ❤️ Tony, an old school guy 62-year-old Black US AIR FORCE VET ✈️🇱🇷 And GOD-FEARING PATRIOT 🙏
"A Redbird Christmas" is one of my favorite holiday reads. I just got her new one in the mail. And as if her writing weren't enough, "Match Game" legacy. Hellooo!
To me your stories are simply American. If anyone deserves a presidential Medal of Honor its Fanny Flagg. You embody unity, under it all we are all the same. There isn’t anything better right now than losing yourself in this author’s work.
I recently started watching match game again, you Fannie are my favorite Star on the panel, your interactions with Brett were/are the funniest thing ever, so glad to see you still kicking around ❤
Love the comments about small town life. Whistle Stop could have been the town my folks were from in Kansas. I first read the book after the movie came out when I was 31. Rereading it now at 61 and the story means so much more to me.
I've been watching Match Game reruns here on CZcams and blown by her beauty, wit and good humor, such a classy Southern Lady, and now that I know she's a novelist, looking into buying me the book shown in the video as I also grew up in a small town, Moab, Utah pop: more or less steady at 7,500 good souls!
Great interview, thanks for sharing! I have been looking for her, I’ve always loved and wanted to meet Fannie Flagg ever since Fried Green Tomatoes. I loved the movie and when I found out she had written the book about it first it made me love her more. That has been a dream of mine to have my stories/book(s) transformed into movies and stage plays. I also remembered enjoying watching her as a kid on Match Game. “With These Hands; A Country Girl Came To Town” is my first book. I have more in me. I did win an award for With These Hands. I always loved listening to my mother, my grandmother and my great grandmother tell me stories of days gone by , especially of their individual childhood stories. I preferred listening to them or read a book as a child rather than go outside. I always dreamed about growing up and writing about their rich delicious stories. I am so glad Fannie Flagg is still around, I would still love to meet her!
I've listened to several of her audio books that she reads. It's hard to choose a favorite .. it may be "The All Girl Filling Stations Last Reunion." I really enjoy listening to her read her own books.
Love you Fannie -Your Perfection -A Quadruple Threat lol not the ordinary Triple Threat such as our Beloved Doris Day ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🎉Write some More plz xoxo
Q: If you could live in any town you've written about, which would you choose? A: ... probably the one I write about the most which is Elmwood Springs ... Which is based on a little town I grew up in, in Birmingham ... a suburb called Woodlawn. ... & I had such a happy time there because I lived with my grandmother, during the war ... And I was very happy then, so if I could go back and recreate it as it was ... Its changed, you know everything changes. I think I'd like to go back and live there.
Match game brought me here. She's still beautiful 🤩
how is it that this woman stays so beautiful? she is incredible and so genuine. love ya fannie!

O yes, one of my favorites too!! I JUST LOVE FANNIE FLAGG.

I absolutely agree. She does deserve that award. It’s too long in coming.
Fannie you are still so beautiful and have a
Heart of Gold,, luv ya Girl
I have her cookbook and her story about being in California and not finding southern food.
I had no idea she was a writer! I used to see her on old reruns of "Match Game" and had no idea she was the woman behind "Fried Green Tomatoes".
Very interesting. I didn't know she was a writer. I've only known her from the Match Game. Lovely lady.
I recently started watching match game again, you Fannie are my favorite Star on the panel, your interactions with Brett were/are the funniest thing ever, so glad to see you still kicking around ❤
I love you Fannie!

There’s something about her. I really like her
Such a nice beautiful.lady...I enjoy watching her in.match game
Awesome personality

The canibalism was quite strange...I wonder if she is aware of the hidden canibalism in deep state
I've listened to several of her audio books that she reads. It's hard to choose a favorite .. it may be "The All Girl Filling Stations Last Reunion." I really enjoy listening to her read her own books.
what a sweetheart.

She was so hot on match game.
She looks great for her age.

Fannie! Please write a non fiction/ match game memior!!!
About: Brett , Charles and Richard...include some others!
Yes..yes..yes!!!!
Wow!
I want to marry her.
Fannie's great, love her, but that episode of Match Game with Adrianne Barbeau she was outgunned
Adrianne has a higher I.Q. size.🐄
I like Fannie. But I wish she hadn't picked up smoking. It's ruined that great face of hers.
